North-east castle to be lit up for Charlie House’s Big Build Appeal

A north-east castle is to be lit up for a week in honour of Charlie House.

Crathes Castle will be illuminated in orange until November 21 to mark its support for the Big Build Appeal.

James Henderson, operations manager for Aberdeen South for the National Trust for Scotland, said: “We are delighted to show our support for the Charlie House Big Build Appeal by illuminating Crathes Castle.

“The north-east is very proud of its landmark buildings and the Charlie House specialist support centre will go on to become a distinct and essential building in the Aberdeen landscape. As a region and as individuals, we should be proud to support and welcome this.”
